Intro to Resistance Bands

In this short video, Coach Nicole gives you an introduction to using resistance bands for fitness. Learn about the benefits of resistance bands, how to choose the right level of resistance for you, and how to use them safely and effectively.

I have resistance bands that I got from a TaeBo video a while ago. I haven't used them in a long time. I'll have to incorporate them into my workout routine to add an extra boost. I use my stretchy bands (rubber bands w/o the handle) often but tend to forget about the other bands. Thanks for the reminder!

I got my resistance bands on here. They came with a dvd called fitness starter kit. It doesn't however, tell me how many calories (for my tracker) that I burned.. Anyway to find out?? I love the resistance bands... What a great invention!

I am very sorry that SparkPeople forces us to watch an advertisement before we see Coach Nicole's excellent guides. Uncle Ben's rice is permanently off my shopping list. So glad we have so many other companies out there with more discrete advertising!!!!

I bought a pair at a garage sale. Sometimes I work crisis care in Hospice. Many nights I am sitting by the bedside in a chair with the lights low. Of course pt care is my first priority but in those minutes when I have done everything I can, ie repositioning, medicating, comfort measures, I find it is a quiet activity to do even sitting that does not disrupt and I can still watch my pt. It helps me stay alert and get some strength/conditioning between charting.
